jer dežbande san...

because I'm sideward...

Lampan, pa dok dura, dura...

I'm walking fast, so let it last while it lasts...

Ka' kandila ti i ja, ti i ja,

You and I, you and I like a candle,

lumin kraj lumina,

candle next to candle

a vanka škureca...

and darkness is outside...

Lampan, pa dok dura, dura...

I'm walking fast, so let it last while it lasts...

Pasa tempo, pasa,

Life squeezes, squeezes,

pasa mladost, pukne šlapa,

It squeezes like hollow pasta,

gobi škina, gobi,

cat sits, sits,

zub se klima, kapje špina...

clock jounces, tap drips...

Škripju špale, škripju,

Shoulders squeak, squeak,

škripje moja bićikleta,

my bicycles [?] squeak,

lumbago mi tilo cima,

lumbago jounces my body,

kapje špina, kapje špina...

tap drips, tap drips...

Ne afanaj kad nan jubav parti

Don't worry too much when our love dies

škunkvašana...

brokenly...
